WARRANT

 

November [●], 2024

 

Void After November [●], 2029

 

THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received and subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, [●], or assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled to purchase at the Exercise Price (defined below) from Ondas Networks Inc., a Texas corporation (the “Company”), the Calculated Amount of fully-paid and non-assessable Warrant Shares of the Company.

 

1. DEFINITIONS. As used herein, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings:

 

(a) “Calculated Amount” means the quotient, rounded down to the nearest whole number, of (i) $[●] divided by (ii) the Conversion Price.

 

(b) “Common Stock” shall mean the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

 

(c) “Conversion Price” shall mean 41.3104.

 

(d) “Exercise Period” shall mean the period beginning on the date of issuance of this Warrant and ending five years after such date on November [●], 2029 (or if such date is not a business day, the next succeeding business day), unless sooner terminated as provided below.

 

(e) “Exercise Price” shall mean $20.65.

 

(f) “Preferred Stock” shall mean the Company’s Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

 

 

(g) “Sale of the Company” shall mean (i) a transaction or series of related transactions with one or more non-affiliates, pursuant to which such non-affiliate(s) acquires capital stock of the Company or the surviving entity, in either case, possessing the voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or a majority of the outstanding capital stock of the Company or the surviving entity (whether by merger, consolidation, sale or transfer of the Company’s outstanding capital stock or otherwise); or (ii) the sale, lease or other disposition (including exclusive license) of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or any other transaction resulting in all or substantially all of the Company’s assets being converted into securities of any other entity or cash; provided, however, that the sale by the Company of capital stock for the purpose of financing its business shall not be deemed to be a Sale of the Company.

 

(h) “Warrant Shares” shall mean the most recent series of shares of the Company’s most senior class of Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (“Senior Preferred Stock”), with such most recent series determined as of the date of such exercise or other determination of amount payable with respect to this Warrant (e.g., the date of a future Sale of the Company), subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms hereof, including but not limited to adjustment pursuant to Section 6 below.

 

2. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

 

(a) Method of Exercise. Subject to Section 3, the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the Exercise Period, by delivery of the following to the Company:

 

(i) an executed Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto;

 

(ii) this Warrant; and

 

(iii) Payment of the then-applicable Exercise Price per share multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares being purchased upon exercise of the Warrant made in the form of cash, or by certified check, bank draft or money order payable in lawful money of the United States of America.

 

(b) Partial Exercise. If this Warrant is exercised in part only, the Company shall, upon surrender of this Warrant, execute and deliver, within 10 days of the date of exercise, a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder, or such other person or persons as shall be designated in the Notice of Exercise, to purchase the balance of the Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder. If the Holder exercises this Warrant or attempts to exercise this Warrant before the Company shall have delivered to the Holder a new Warrant as contemplated above, then the Holder shall be deemed to have validly exercised this Warrant without the need for compliance with the requirements of Section 2(a)(ii). In no event shall this Warrant be exercised for a fractional Warrant Share, and the Company shall not distribute a Warrant exercisable for a fractional Warrant Share. Fractional Warrant Shares shall be treated as provided in Section 8 hereof.

 

(c) Effect of Exercise. Upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, shares of Senior Preferred Stock shall be issued for the Warrant Shares so purchased, and shall be registered in the name of the Holder or any other person or persons, if the Holder so designates, on or before the third (3rd) business day after the rights represented by this Warrant shall have been so exercised and shall be issued in certificate or book-entry form with a restrictive legend notation as set forth in Section 5(d) and delivered to the Holder, if so requested. The person in whose name any Warrant Shares are to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on the date on which this Warrant was surrendered and payment of the Exercise Price was made, irrespective of the date of issuance of the shares of Senior Preferred Stock, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open.

 

 

3. VESTING. The Warrant Shares are fully vested and this Warrant is exercisable with respect to such Warrant Shares as of the date hereof.

 

4. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

 

(a) Covenants as to Warrant Shares. If at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and Senior Preferred Stock shall not be sufficient to permit exercise of this Warrant, the Company will promptly take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and Senior Preferred Stock (or other securities as provided herein) to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.

 

(b) Valid Issuance. The Company has taken, and shall take, all steps necessary to ensure that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant shall, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it is agreed and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares may be subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth in the Company’s Bylaws, as in effect from time to time.

 

(c) No Impairment. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder or otherwise in accordance with Section 2 hereof, the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Formation (as such may be amended from time to time), or through any means, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the exercise rights of the Holder against impairment.

 

(d) Notices of Certain Events. If the Company proposes at any time (a) to declare any dividend or distribution upon the Warrant Shares, whether in cash, property, stock, or other securities and whether or not a regular cash dividend; or (b) to effect any reclassification or recapitalization of its capital stock, then the Company shall give Holder at least ten (10) days prior written notice of the date on which an action will be taken to effect any of the foregoing.

 

(e) Compliance with Law. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to ensure that any and all Warrant Shares are issued without violation by the Company of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock and Senior Preferred Stock (or other securities then constituting Warrant Shares) may be listed at the time of such exercise (except, if applicable, for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such issuance).

 

 

5. REPRESENTATIONS OF HOLDER.

 

(a) Investment Experience. The Holder (a) acknowledges that it has received all the information Holder has requested from the Company and Holder considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to acquire this Warrant and the Warrant Shares, (b) represents that Holder has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares and to obtain any additional information necessary to verify the accuracy of the information given Holder, and (c) further represents that Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risk of this investment. Holder acknowledges that investment in this Warrant and the Warrant Shares involves a high degree of risk, and represents that Holder is able, without materially impairing Holder’s financial condition, to hold this Warrant and the Warrant Shares for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss of Holder’s investment. Holder is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

(b) Acquisition of Warrant for Personal Account. The Holder represents and warrants that it is acquiring the Warrant and the Warrant Shares solely for its account for investment and not with a present view toward the public distribution of said Warrant or Warrant Shares or any part thereof and has no intention of selling or distributing said Warrant or Warrant Shares or any arrangement or understanding with any other persons regarding the sale or distribution of said Warrant or Warrant Shares, except as would not result in a violation of the Securities Act. The Holder will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of) the Warrant except in accordance with the Securities Act (including any exemption from registration thereunder) and will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of) the Warrant Shares except in accordance with the Securities Act (including any exemption from registration thereunder).

 

(c) Securities Are Not Registered.

 

(i) The Holder understands that the offer and sale of the Warrant or the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act on the basis that no distribution or public offering of such securities of the Company is to be effected. The Holder realizes that the basis for the exemption may not be present if, notwithstanding its representations, the Holder has a present intention of acquiring the securities for a fixed or determinable period in the future, selling (in connection with a distribution or otherwise), granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the securities. The Holder has no such present intention.

 

(ii) The Holder recognizes that the Warrant and the Warrant Shares may have to be held indefinitely unless the resale thereof is subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Holder recognizes that the Company has no obligation to register the Warrant or the Warrant Shares, or to comply with any exemption from such registration.

 

 

(iii) The Holder is aware that neither the Warrant nor the Warrant Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 adopted under the Securities Act unless certain conditions are met, including, among other things, the availability of certain current public information about the Company and the required holding period under Rule 144 being satisfied. Holder is aware that any such sale made in reliance on Rule 144, if Rule 144 is available, may be made only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144.

 

(d) Disposition of Warrant and Warrant Shares. The Holder understands and agrees that all certificates evidencing the Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder may bear a legend in substantially the following form:

 

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THEY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL (I) SUCH OFFER, SALE, TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION HAS BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (II) THE ISSUER OF THE SECURITIES HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT OR AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS THEREOF.

 

6. CHANGES IN OUTSTANDING SHARES. In the event of changes in the outstanding Common Stock or Senior Preferred Stock by reason of stock dividends, split-ups, recapitalizations, reclassifications, combinations or exchanges of shares, separations, reorganizations, liquidations, or the like, the number and class of shares available under the Warrant in the aggregate and the Exercise Price shall be correspondingly adjusted to give the Holder of the Warrant, on exercise for the aggregate Exercise Price, the total number, class, and kind of shares as the Holder would have been entitled to had the Warrant been exercised immediately before the event, only as provided for in Section 2(a)(iii), and had the Holder continued to hold such shares until after the event requiring adjustment. The form of this Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment in the number, class, and kind of shares subject to this Warrant. The Company shall promptly provide a certificate from an authorized officer notifying the Holder in writing of any adjustment in the Exercise Price and/or the total number, class, and kind of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, which certificate shall specify the Exercise Price and number, class and kind of shares under this Warrant after giving effect to such adjustment.

 

 

7. SALE OF THE COMPANY. In the event of a Sale of the Company, then the Company shall ensure that lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, only as provided for in Section 2(a)(iii), such shares of stock, securities or assets (including cash) as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, only as provided for in Section 2(a)(iii), had such Sale of the Company not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for adjustment of the Exercise Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any share of stock, securities or assets (including cash) thereafter deliverable upon the exercise thereof. The Company shall not effect any Sale of the Company unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor entity (if other than the Company) resulting from such Sale of the Company, or the entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Holder, at the last address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets (including cash) as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, as the Holder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under this Warrant. The provisions of this Section 7 shall similarly apply to successive Sales of the Company.

 

8. FRACTIONAL SHARES, ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant as a consequence of any adjustment pursuant hereto. All Warrant Shares (including fractions) issuable upon exercise of this Warrant may be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the exercise would result in the issuance of any fractional share. If, after aggregation, the exercise would result in the issuance of a fractional share, the Company shall, in lieu of issuance of any fractional share, pay the Holder otherwise entitled to such fraction a sum in cash equal to the product resulting from multiplying the then current fair value of a Warrant Share by such fraction. No adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least $0.0001; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 8 are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Section 8 shall be made to the $0.0001 or to the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.

 

9. NO STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. This Warrant in and of itself shall not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or, except as otherwise set forth herein, other rights as a stockholder of the Company.

 

10. RESERVATION OF SHARES. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and Senior Preferred Stock a number of shares equal to no less than 100% of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock and Senior Preferred Stock issuable upon full exercise of the Warrant.

 

 

11. TRANSFER OF WARRANT. Subject to applicable laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, by the Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon delivery of this Warrant and the form of assignment attached hereto to any transferee designated by Holder.

 

12. LOST, STOLEN, MUTILATED OR DESTROYED WARRANT. If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company may, on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may reasonably impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of identical denomination, tenor and terms as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

 

13. MODIFICATIONS AND WAIVER. Provisions of this Warrant may be amended or modified, or a provision or requirement hereof waived, only with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.

 

14. NOTICES, ETC. Any notice required or permitted pursuant to this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficient upon receipt, when delivered personally or sent by courier, overnight delivery service or confirmed email, or three business days after being deposited in the regular mail, as certified or registered mail (airmail if sent internationally), with postage prepaid, addressed to: (a) if to the Holder, the address of the Holder most recently furnished in writing to the Company (or, if no address has been furnished, the address of such Holder in the Company’s records); and (b) if to the Company, the address of the Company’s corporate headquarters, Attention: Chief Executive Officer.

 

15. ACCEPTANCE. Receipt of this Warrant by the Holder shall constitute acceptance of and agreement to all of the terms and conditions contained herein.

 

16. GOVERNING LAW. This Warrant shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas.

 

17. DESCRIPTIVE HEADINGS. The descriptive headings of the several paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Warrant. The language in this Warrant shall be construed as to its fair meaning without regard to which party drafted this Warrant.

 

18. SEVERABILITY. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Warrant in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction, or affect any other provision of this Warrant, which shall remain in full force and effect.

 

19. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Warrant constitute the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter contained in it and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations, and undertakings of the parties, whether oral or written, with respect to such subject matter.

(b) Except as expressly set forth in this Section 2, and as may be set forth in the other Transaction Documents, neither the Company nor any other Person makes any express or implied representation or warranty with respect to the Company and the Company disclaims all liability and responsibility for any representation, warranty, promise, assurance, guaranty or other statement made (including any opinion, information, financial projection or advice which may have been provided to Purchasers or any of their Affiliates), or information communicated orally or in writing, or the accuracy or completeness thereof, to Purchasers or any of their Affiliates by the Company or any partner, director, manager, officer, employee, accounting firm, legal counsel, or other agent, consultant, financial advisor or representative of the Company.

 

3. Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. Each Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company, severally and not jointly, that:

 

3.1 Authorization. Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into the Transaction Documents. All corporate action required to be taken by Purchaser in order to authorize Purchaser to enter into the Transaction Documents has been taken. The Transaction Documents to which Purchaser is a party, when executed and delivered by Purchaser, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of Purchaser, enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with their terms, except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and any other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.

 

3.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with Purchaser in reliance upon Purchaser’s representation to the Company, which by Purchaser’s execution of this Agreement, Purchaser hereby confirms, that the Notes to be acquired by Purchaser will be acquired for investment for Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, Purchaser further represents that Purchaser does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any Person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such Person or to any third Person, with respect to any of the Notes. Purchaser has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Notes.

 

3.3 Disclosure of Information. Purchaser has had an opportunity to discuss the Company’s business, management, financial affairs and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Notes with the Company’s management and has had an opportunity to review the Company’s facilities. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties of the Company in Section 2 of this Agreement or the right of Purchaser to rely thereon.

 

3.4 Restricted Securities. Purchaser understands that the Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of Purchaser’s representations as expressed herein. Purchaser understands that the Notes are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, Purchaser must hold the Notes indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Notes, or the Common Stock into which it may be converted, for resale except as set forth in the Investors’ Rights Agreement. Purchaser further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Notes, and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of Purchaser’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.

 

 

3.5 No Public Market. Purchaser understands that no public market now exists for the Notes, and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Notes.

 

3.6 Legends. Purchaser understands that the Notes and any securities issued in respect of or exchange for the Notes, may be notated with one or all of the following legends:

 

“THIS NOTE AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON THE CONVERSION HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF CERTAIN STATES. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION OTHERWISE COMPLIES WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”

 

(a) Any legend set forth in, or required by, the other Transaction Documents.

 

(b) Any legend required by the securities laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the Notes represented by the certificate, instrument, or book entry so legended.

 

3.7 Accredited Investor. Purchaser is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

3.8 Foreign Investors. If Purchaser is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), Purchaser hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Notes or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Notes, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale, or transfer of the Notes.

3.9 CFIUS Foreign Person Status. Purchaser is not a “foreign person” or a “foreign entity,” as defined in Section 721 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended, including all implementing regulations thereof (the “DPA”). Purchaser is not controlled by a “foreign person,” as defined in the DPA.

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

US$[●]

Effective Date: November [●], 2024

 

Ondas Networks Inc., a Texas corporation (“Maker”), for value received, promises to pay to the order of [●] (“Holder”), the principal amount of [●] Dollars (US$[●]) together with interest as set forth in this Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”).

 

1. Principal and Interest. Interest shall accrue from the date hereof on the principal balance hereof remaining from time to time outstanding at the rate equal to ten percent (10%) per annum, simple interest (the “Note Rate”), and, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, interest shall be payable at a rate equal to the Note Rate plus two percent (2%) per annum. Interest shall accrue on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty-five (365) days and charged for the number of days actually elapsed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, unless earlier converted into Conversion Shares (as defined below), Maker shall pay the entire outstanding principal balance hereunder, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on September 30, 2025 (“Maturity Date”).

 

2. Security. This Note is a general secured obligation of Maker, which shall be secured by all of the assets of Maker, provided however this secured obligation shall be subordinate to that certain secured note, dated September 3, 2024, by and between Maker and Charles & Potomac Capital LLC, a Texas limited liability company. Maker hereby authorizes the filing of any financing statements or continuation statements, and amendments to financing statements, or any similar document in any jurisdictions and with any filing offices as Holder may determine, in its sole discretion, are necessary or advisable to perfect the security interest granted to Holder herein.

 

3. No Optional Prepayment. Maker may not prepay any portion of the principal or interest of this Note without the written consent of Holder, which may be withheld in Holder’s sole discretion.

 

4. Next Equity Financing or Corporate Transaction Conversion. The principal balance and unpaid accrued interest on this Note will be convertible at the option of Holder into Conversion Shares upon the closing of the Next Equity Financing or a Corporate Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Maker may, at its option, pay any unpaid accrued interest on this Note in cash at the time of conversion. The number of Conversion Shares Maker issues upon such conversion will equal the quotient (rounded down to the nearest whole share) obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal balance and unpaid accrued interest under this Note on a date that is no more than five (5) days prior to the closing of the Next Equity Financing by (y) the applicable Conversion Price. At least five (5) days prior to the closing of the Next Equity Financing, Maker will notify Holder in writing of the terms of the Equity Securities that are expected to be issued in such financing. The issuance of Conversion Shares pursuant to the conversion of this Note will be on, and subject to, the same terms and conditions applicable to the Equity Securities issued in the Next Equity Financing.

 

 

5. Financing Agreements. Holder acknowledges that the conversion of this Note into Conversion Shares pursuant to Section 4 may require Holder’s execution of certain agreements relating to the purchase and sale of the Conversion Shares, as well as registration rights, rights of first refusal and co-sale, rights of first offer and voting rights, if any, relating to such securities (collectively, the “Financing Agreements”). Holder agrees to execute all of the Financing Agreements that are executed by purchasers of Equity Securities in the Next Equity Financing.

 

6. Representations and Warranties of Maker. In connection with the transactions contemplated by this Note, and in addition to the representations made by Maker in the Securities Purchase Agreement, Maker hereby represents and warrants to Holder as follows:

 

(a) Due Organization; Qualification and Good Standing. Maker is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Texas and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted. Maker is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify or to be in good standing would have a material adverse effect on Maker.

 

(b) Authorization and Enforceability. Except for the authorization and issuance of the Conversion Shares, all corporate action has been taken on the part of Maker and its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Note. Except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights, Maker has taken all corporate action required to make all of the obligations of Maker reflected in the provisions of this Note valid and enforceable in accordance with its terms.

 

7. Representations and Warranties of Holder. In connection with the transactions contemplated by this Note, Holder hereby represents and warrants to Maker as follows:

 

(a) Authorization. Holder has full power and authority (and, if an individual, the capacity) to enter into this Note and to perform all obligations required to be performed by it hereunder. This Note, when executed and delivered by Holder, will constitute Holder’s valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and any other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (b) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.

 

(b) Purchase Entirely for Own Account. Holder acknowledges that this Note is made with Holder in reliance upon Holder’s representation to Maker, which the Holder hereby confirms by executing this Note, that this Note, the Conversion Shares, and any securities issuable upon conversion of the Conversion Shares (collectively, the “Securities”) will be acquired for investment for Holder’s own account, not as a nominee or agent (unless otherwise specified on Holder’s signature page hereto), and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that Holder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Note, Holder further represents that Holder does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any Person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such Person or to any third Person, with respect to the Securities. If other than an individual, Holder also represents it has not been organized solely for the purpose of acquiring the Securities.

 

 

(c) Disclosure of Information; Non-Reliance. Holder acknowledges that it has received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate to enable it to make an informed decision concerning an investment in the Securities. Holder further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from Maker regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities. Holder confirms that Maker has not given any guarantee or representation as to the potential success, return, effect or benefit (either legal, regulatory, tax, financial, accounting or otherwise) of an investment in the Securities. In deciding to purchase the Securities, Holder is not relying on the advice or recommendations of Maker and has made its own independent decision that the investment in the Securities is suitable and appropriate for Holder. Holder understands that no federal or state agency has passed upon the merits or risks of an investment in the Securities or made any finding or determination concerning the fairness or advisability of this investment.

 

(d) Investment Experience. Holder is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Securities.

 

(e) Accredited Investor. Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Holder agrees to furnish any additional information requested by Maker or any of its affiliates to assure compliance with applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws in connection with the purchase and sale of the Securities.

 

(f) Restricted Securities. Holder understands that the Securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or state securities laws, by reason of specific exemptions from the registration provisions thereof which depend upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of Holder’s representations as expressed herein. Holder understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” under U.S. federal and applicable state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, Holder must hold the Securities indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and registered or qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. Holder acknowledges that Maker has no obligation to register or qualify the Securities for resale and further acknowledges that, if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Securities, and on requirements relating to Maker which are outside of Holder’s control, and which Maker is under no obligation, and may not be able, to satisfy.

 

(g) No Public Market. Holder understands that no public market now exists for the Securities and that Maker has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Securities.

 

(h) No General Solicitation. Holder, and its officers, directors, employees, agents, stockholders or partners have not either directly or indirectly, including through a broker or finder, solicited offers for or offered or sold the Securities by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502 of Regulation D under the Securities Act or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. Holder acknowledges that neither Maker nor any other Person offered to sell the Securities to it by means of any form of general solicitation or advertising within the meaning of Rule 502 of Regulation D under the Securities Act or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

 

 

(i) Residence. If Holder is an individual, then Holder resides in the state or province identified in the address shown on Holder’s signature page hereto. If Holder is a partnership, corporation, limited liability company or other entity, then Holder’s principal place of business is located in the state or province identified in the address shown on Holder’s signature page hereto.

 

(j) Foreign Investors. If Holder is not a United States Person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), Holder hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Securities, including (a) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Securities; (b) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase; (c) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained; and (d) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, conversion, redemption, sale, or transfer of the Securities. Holder’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Securities will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of Holder’s jurisdiction.

18. Amendments and Waivers. Any and all amendments, modifications, discharges or waivers of, or consents to any departures from any provision of this Note or of any of the related loan documents shall not be effective without the written consent of Holder and Maker. Any waiver or consent with respect to any provision of such loan documents shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.
